Trip to Bandung Indonesia EP2 Tangkuban Perahu & Saung Angklung Udjo—-The volcano, The Angklung show

On my second day in Bandung, I had the opportunity to explore the famous Tangkuban Perahu volcano in the morning. It was my first time witnessing a real volcano. Although it didn’t match the spectacular scenes from National Geographic or Hollywood disaster movies in my mind, but indeed I felt a sense of joy and excitement. After all, it was my first time being so close to an active volcano.

In the afternoon, I visited Saung Angklung Udjo to witness captivating cultural performances. The music, played with the magical Indonesian instrument Angklung, the Wayang puppet show, and various traditional dances and songs left a lasting impression on me. Particularly, the mesmerizing “Mask Dance” was truly memorable.

Unfortunately, due to changes in my work schedule, I had to cut my stay short and return to Jakarta a day earlier. While entering Bandung’s train station, I unexpectedly caught sight of the presidential convoy.

With a reluctant farewell to this charming city, I left with a promise to return.
